The Elon Musk backed pro-Russian candidate in Romania, Calin Georgescu has been arrested. Authorities raided him like the crook he is and found at least $10 million in cash and tickets to Moscow. He may have also bumped his head a little bit too.

Human Rights Under Threat 🚨

President Trump just signed an Executive Order withdrawing the U.S. from:

“Congratulations, plaudits, bouquets, and a well earned pat on the back to all of the “Lets-teach-a-lesson-to-Genocide-Joe” activists out there; and a hearty well-done for the MAGA folks who railed against endless wars. Because what’s more America First than this, my good lads?”
